here are some more terms that I dug up, mostly newer terms or broad, top
level terms.
Some additional terms:
absorption line system
Lyman alpha absorption system
supergalactic coordinate system
supergalactic longitude
supergalactic latitude

equation of state
galaxy disk flare
coronal mass ejection
L dwarf
T dwarf
magnetar
soft gamma ray repeater
cosmochronology

red clump
red giant bump
blue loop
extreme horizontal branch star
PG1159 (subclass of extremely hot helium rich WD)
low mass x-ray binary
high mass x-ray binary
primary companion star
secondary companion star
tertiary companion star
tip of red giant branch distance
Cepheid distance
surface brightness fluctuation distance
Faber-Jackson distance
log
log g (a particularly important log quantity)
overabundance
underabundance
